Hereditary transthyretin (ATTRv) amyloidosis is a rare, severe, progressive, debilitating, and ultimately fatal disease caused by systemic deposition of transthyretin (TTR) amyloid fibrils. ATTRv amyloidosis occurs in both males and females. Eplontersen (ION-682884), a ligand-conjugated antisense oligonucleotide designed to degrade hepatic TTR mRNA, is being evaluated for the treatment of ATTRv amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN) in the phase 3, international, multicenter, open-label NEURO-TTRansform study (NCT04136184). To describe the study population of this pivotal trial, here we report the baseline characteristics of patients enrolled in the NEURO-TTRansform study.Methods
Patients eligible for NEURO-TTRansform were 18-82 years old with a diagnosis o
